Green Day Q&A Thread

This may be a dumb question but has there been a Green Day song that wasn't a single that actually made it really big in the mainsteam? I've always been curious about this.

Going to Pasalacqua often gets played at concerts and was played on TV at least once

King for a Day is frequently played at concerts

And I also think that Ha Ha You're Dead is suprisingly well known

On te ¡Dos! Wikipedia page it says that the album is released on iTunes 4 days early, on the 9th. Has anyone heard anything about this?

Is the pedestrian music video that's on youtube official?

Facepalm. No offense, but are you the person that posted here that they played Green Day's "My Generation" at the olympics? Lol

Not really. The band knew that the person who made it was making it, but they didn't have any input into it and it was never guaranteed that they'd use it. In the end they chose not to, so it was neither made by nor approved by the band and therefore I wouldn't call it official. The guy who made just posted it online himself separately from the band.

Did Billie actually say this? If so, where? I saw it on tumblr, so I figured I'd ask you guys... :ermm:

Does that even happen, with any artist?

Stairway to fucking Heaven.

Well, if they are getting divorced, please consider me, I am an Ox sign and BJA is a Rat sign which means it would be a happy marriage. LOL.

Are there any original, non-cover songs that they have only played live once?

I think Horseshoes and Handgrenades and Peacemaker were only played once.

Then there's World Vs. World, Minnesota Girl, and You Can't Fool Me, which have been played twice each.

I was wondering if someone has the poster of Billie in kerrang of October 10th

They were played at least 4 times in April 2009

I was not aware of that :lol: I thought it was a legit video club because its posted in the downloads section and on GDA. Oh well I still count it as an official clip, its pretty damn good

Anyone figured out any chords for The Forgotten?

Yeah the guy made it for them but they turned it down. I think at the time Bill S might've come on and confirmed that it's not official/endorsed by the band (not sure though). Can't find out if that's the case or not as the search doesn't go back as far as 2008, but here's a post by Andres explaining it when someone asked about it in 2009:

Quite a cool video but not official :P

They must have thought this thread is for sending questions to Green Day or something. :lol:

Why are the vocals on Shenanigans so quiet?

They're really not. Considering they weren't recorded at the same time, there should be no reason for that to happen consistently through them.

If you're using an equalizer on your sound system try messing with that a little.

Does the band still talk to John Kiffmeyer? And is it safe to say that they wouldn't be where they are today if it weren't for him? Is it true that they probably would never have gotten a gig at Gilman Street if it weren't for him?

The second one is true, the last one, nobody knows for sure, and the first one, nobody knows at all. up to 2000, they didn't talk to him. but I haven't seen an interview about John from recent times
